sation Soon SQuelched. f
The monotony of yesterdays council
proceedings was rudely broken bythe
introduction0 the following resolutions
by Aid. Mills:
Whereas. Il. B. Jsnney was elected by the
members of the former council rs memher
of the board of police commits toners on lne
ground that he was Democrat, and
! hereas, 1t is patent to us that by ms re,
cent acts and votes in the meetings oil siilu
board he has demonstrated beyond reason
able doubt his unworihiness TO the title OF
Democrat, and has, in our opinion, not 0hiy
violated the spirit but the letter OF the law,
and .tirr .f'
Whereas, Said board are but creatures OF
this city council, and who are the representa-
tives of the people and entitled TO some re-
spect in the management OF the general ON,
GERS of the city: they, the said board, should
not rule in Il naughty and arbitrary manner
in deposing some of our hest and most Val'l-
able citizens on the most iiimsy technical
tiles without due consideration or even con-
ference with those who know them best;
therefore, be it ;,
Resolved by the council of Minneapolis,
That the said Y. Il. JanGey he hereby Sc
vercly censuTed for his fragrant misconduct
as police commissioner.
Resolved, further. That we point with
PRIDE TO the police record of last year, which
was made under IL Democratic admnistra-
ton. and we view with alarm the danger
Gus position our city is placed i'll in conSe-
ouence of such action, in demOraliZinS the
force and dcpriving the city Of the services
of certain eIficient officers and dispensing
with the detective force, which is and has al
WAYS been considered as the main protection
10 life and property.
Aid. Johnson leaped TO his feet the
moment the voice of the city clerk died
out. The resolution" he shouted, rs
the most outrageous, the most uncalled
for and the most ScandalOuS proceeding
| ever heard of. 1t calls for some com
ment in the council. Here is business
man of unquestionable standing, and
whose honesty has never been i'm
peached. And now, because he does not
vote in the police commission to suit
some men. this resolution is introduced,
and | pronounce it the worst outrage L
ever knew in this council. Mr.. Janney
is Democrat. and has been Democrat
all his life. His father is Democrat
and his whole family are Democrats,
and ROW for the Democrats to attempt
to impeach him here is the most UNI
Democratic proceeding l ever heard of.
| move to lay the resolution on the
ia le."
